Almond White Hot Chocolate with Peppermint Marshmallows
Who can resist a nice warming cup of holiday cheer over the holidays? I know I can’t! I made up the perfect little cup. I used almond milk to switch it up and add a little nutty richness. Out shopping the other day, I found the peppermint marshmallows and couldn’t resist buying them, so this is what I came up with.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups almond milk
- 1/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 tbsp. granulated sugar
- 1 tsp. vanilla extract
- 6 oz. white chocolate
Directions
Place all ingredients into a small sauce pan and turn heat up to medium. Heat until small bubbles form about 4-5 minutes and the chocolate melts. Continuously whisking. Pour into coffee mugs. Garnish with whipped cream, peppermint marshmallows or a candy cane!
